Placed on IR, designated to return
Reed (ankle) was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Reed has been recovering well from the sprained knee he suffered in early August, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, but he will now be forced to miss at least four games to open the 2025 campaign. The rookie was competing for a depth role at strong safety behind starter Calen Bullock, and Russ Yeast sticks out as the most likely candidate to handle the No. 2 role for the time being.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Visits Baltimore
Reed had a visit with the Ravens, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Reed is likely to be drafted in the middle rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft, with Dane Brugler of The Athletic giving the safety out of Penn State a fourth-round grade. Baltimore would be an intriguing landing spot for Reed, who posted 98 tackles and three interceptions at Penn State in 2024. The Ravens don't have a clear starter at free safety next to strong safety Kyle Hamilton.
